This fix adds additional parameter 'datastore'. This parameter
provides a flexibility to specify custom datastore or datastore cluster
to deploy new virtual machine from template (which is located in different
datastore or datastore cluster from virtual machine's datastore or datastore
cluster).

If there are multiple distributed virtual portgroup network with same name
in different datacenter, vmware_guest module used to choose first DVPG irrespective
of the datacenter. This caused problem if two datacenter has same name for DVPG,
vmware_guest module failed with error "The object or item referred to could not be found."
This fix adds check to search for network (Distributed Virtual Portgroup)
till datacenter level. This avoids selection of same name DVPG from other datacenter.

Some users have problems using the VMware modules because they use the
vCenter as target, and Ansible uses SSH to connect to the targets.
Eventually we need to update the VMware guide to explain how the modules
work, but the first fix is to update the examples.
(We should backport to v2.6 and v2.5 too)
linked_clone requires snapshot_src parameter. This fix makes them required_together
and update documentation. Also, testcase is added.

This fix adds a new parameter 'dvswitch_name' in networks argument spec.
When there are multiple distributed portgroup with the same name in the given
environment, it is difficult to pick particular dvpg. By specifying dvswitch value
we can pin point exact distributed portgroup to attach virtual machine to.

Check datatype of device instead of comparing them directly in
vmware_guest. Also, added testcases to check this behavior.

`network['vlan']` should be a VLAN ID
Integers passed around using jinja variable references are
converted to strings (see # 9362)
The # 32738 PR should allow using 'NativeType' in ansible
Explicitly converting to integer will make the module works
as expected with or without the NativeType support
`network['vlan']` can also be a VLAN NAME (fallback)
Explicitly converting to string will make the module works
as expected with or without the NativeType support
This fix adds new argument parameter which allows user to
set customization specification which is already created with required
values like Windows Product Key and Networking details etc.

This fix adds a check for switchuuid value of distributed virtual switch.
When there is no association between hostsystem and distributed virtual portgroup,
both specified by user, then module does not find DVSwitch.
This patch tries to mitigate that problem.

This fix corrects the comparison of system generated guest_id with
user provided guest_id. Module used to report change even if the
guest_ids were same. For example, user provided guest id rhel7_64guest
and VMware returned guest id rhel7_64Guest are logically same but
lexicographically different and due to this module use to report
change even if there is no change applied.

* Clean up vmware BOTMETA
This removes everything that's already part of the module docs. So
basically the BOTMETA file only extends the information from the module.
* Updated author information and copyright statement
This change adds the optional wait_for_state_change argument to the
vmware_guest, vmware_guest_powerstate module, which allows for module
completion to be blocked when using the shutdownguest state until the
VM has reached the poweredoff state.

* Adding support for vApp properties.
* vm specification updated only if changes have to be applied. I.e. subsequent updates with the same data will not trigger changed state
* Auxiliary variables renamed, hope this makes the code more readable
* Integration tests changed - re-adding the same properties test not implemented, but tested on real vCenter deployment
* fixing documentation "version_added" for the feature
* Addressing reviewers comments #2:
* documentation updated with the only meaningful value for "option" attribute - "remove"
* Fixed improperly handled case when user requested "add" operation for existent property
* vApp configuration is updated only with properties that contains changes, not with all properties requested by user
This fixes, cloning operation where template or existing VM
does not have network or DVPG. Also, adds some strict type checking in
network parameters.
